I really do see a huge problem.... There is only one bichir, lol
The thing about these guys is that you really cant have just one, they are highly addictive! But you are off to a good start, that is a nice lookin lap for sure. Keep us updated with pics as it grows.
The common ones are the way to start and then when you are confident with them you can add the more exotic. My start was with a sen and a del and before you knew it I had a gold dust, and weeksii. Aftre many different stock changes I have a teugelsi and weeksii and am looking to add a couple wild caught, a koliba and endli. Yep you will add more, lol.
Yeah I had a ornate, endli, albino sen regular sen but I'm gonna build a 250-500 in summer depending on footprint so I'm prob gonna do a fire eel with maybe one catfish and few bichir, and maybe rest cichlids
Thats really close to a tank i was planning. I got quotes from a few builders if you havent chosen one yet. Look into fish tanks direct, mid west customs, and truvu all were in the same ball park im probably going to go with midwest customs
